What is laser collagen remodeling?
Yag laser is a 1064 nanometer laser that penetrates to the collagen layer in your skin to gently heat and stimulate new growth of collagen resulting in tightening of the skin. This very safe and non-invasive procedure is often called the “lunch hour face lift.” Collagen is the “backbone” or structure to our skin, much like the framework to a house. As we age, our collagen bands relax, causing the skin to sag and develop lines and wrinkles. Just like going to a gym and lifting weights stresses muscles, resulting in new muscle growth and toning, this deep heating of the collagen also results in new collagen growth. This new growth can result in up to a 40% tightening of skin.
